Turning The SCREWACKY Bowl! - Wood Turning

- I mostly turn natural pieces, always trying to use what nature has provided and showcasing the defects, etc. This is more of a conventional winged-bowl but I was able to leave some of the history of the wood while still creating an interesting shape.
Or, is it? You decide! Elm, finished in Feed & Wax.

You should never apologize for turning unique shapes. That's who you are and why a lot of us watch you. Always a pleasure.
I like it Phil it’s just great
I think Monte said it right. And yes you are always a Pleasure.
Thanks, Monte! 😊
Their is no mistakes, it’s seen through the artist’s eyes. Phil has the eye.👍👍👍👍
Oi
My wife and sons claim I am slightly off center, so I like a bowl that reflects my personality! You must have been talking to them just before turning this gorgeous piece of elm!
Yup, they gave me the idea to make you smile, Robert! 😊
I love it to be honest, and as the artist Bob Ross used to say there are no mistakes there are just happy accidents and I think it’s a lovely little bowl. Well done.
Thanks, Martin! 😊
It's because of you that I went from needing perfect to needing perfectly unique. U have inspired me to do more stuff with natural bark and cracks and holes...perfectly UNIQUE. I've only berm turning for almost a yr.
This is so good to know! I love that you are willing to take a chance on what many might consider firewood. Thank you! 😊
Phil, we don't think you're crazy. We *know* you're crazy and that's why we watch you. You take pieces of wood that most people would put in the burn barrel and produce an amazing work of art.
Thank you, Dana! 😊
Looks great to me Phil. Always a pleasure learning from you sir. I do appreciate you so much for being here and teaching us.
😊
Personally i never cared for the square corners but this bowl is just lovely i would be proud to display. I love seeing your work and what your imagination can produce. Never been disappointed in any thing you have created. THANK YOU ,for sharing your art with the world.
Wow, so kind of you, Patricia, thank you! 😊
Phil
The beauty of the uncovered wood grain takes the eye away from any uneveness
It went unnoticed until you started pointing them out.
Nice turning.
John
Thank you, John! 😊
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful Elm bowl in the books. I need a bowl like this for when I eat soup bc it would keep all my spills from going on my table cloth...lol 😆
LOL! That's why I eat standing at the sink! 😊

Phil, I enjoy watching your videos. I'm not a woodworker but appreciate your honest videos. It feels like we are friends and you are teaching me how to turn the beautiful bowls you make. It seems that you genuinely love what you do and you simply invite us into your shop to watch what you do. I find your videos relaxing, educational, and I look forward to each one. Best wishes!
Wade, I can say that most certainly“Phil” has inspired the way I turn. He has also pointed me towards others PAPA 1947 , Gord Rock etc. Without his influence and information I’d certainly be struggling. 🙂
This is fantastic, Wade, thank you for taking your time to watch and comment, much appreciated! 😊
Phil I love your channel!! I started into wood turning about 5Years ago when I Inherited a entry level lathe from my father. Turning is so much fun. I had to upgrade to a Jet latheVS. You are the best teacher of your craft. Thank you for sharing your expertise. You have given me the courage to try new projects. All my friends are amazed at the bowls I have made. I love your conversational style. It makes me feel like i’m in the shop with you! Thanks again
Phil McGhee
That is awesome! Thank you, Phil! That is exactly how I think of this group. We are all just hanging around the lathe shooting the breeze. 😊
As long as a project has great grain structure, you always show it. Thank you.
Thank you, William! 😊
Yaaay, it’s a Phil video! It’s bedtime here, and it’s so peaceful to unwind to your videos and to read the comments. Good people in the world. Talented people. Beautiful things.
Good morning! 😊
It’s so nice to watch someone create art
The “defects” are definitely not a minus 💜
Thank you! You make two SWFG's in our group! 😊
Of course we like it , that means much more than a simply round bowl , the mere idea of the square top is great , makes all the difference , surely interesting for woodturners !
Thank you, Youenn! 😃
If you don't try new things,you can't do new things.I like it.
So true! 😊
Hey Phil,
A majority of your viewers love you for just this sort of natural attitude towards a piece of wood. I know I keep coming back for it.
Like you said at the beginning, you could go to the store to buy a porcelain bowl if you wanted to have a perfectly symmetrical piece.
Keep up the great work/fun Pal!
Very nice, Russ, thank you! 😊
Phil, I enjoy it most when you turn some crazy, rooty piece of wood with rocks and cracks and everything else. Still, these videos with more well-behaved wood are outstanding and probably a bit easier on you, too! Thanks for letting us join you every week. Hope you're continuing to feel good.
Thank you, Leigh! I, too, love the crazy pieces with cracks and voids and all manner of foreign objects. But, it is fun to turn at a higher RPM and just feel the smooth cuts happen. 😊
Actually I Loved you comment and outlook in leaving slight imperfections in you projects. I never sell any of my wood workings, but I give a ton of them away. With each piece, the recipient gets a note on how to care for it and my personal message that I Never strive to make my wood project perfect, because the only time wood is perfect is when it is on a tree as God made it. Thank you Phil,
John
That is awesome! 😊
All the marks are called character don't ever change;
I love the way you do what you do.
Thank you, Harold! 😊
I really enjoy watching your videos
I like this piece!
Thank you very much, Luie! 😊
I have yet seen you turn anything that wasn't a masterpiece I have learned so much from watching you over the years you sir are a great teacher.
😊
I love the honey colored elm finish. Nature is to be appreciated with it's unique features. Bravo. Thanks for the tips on diamond cards and burs on the scraper. 🔷
You are welcome and thank you! 😊
Phil, I think one of the beautifulspects of a wingbed bowl is that 99.999% of the time it wil not be perfect! I love doing winged bowls and that's just the way they are. One more piece of usable art to your credit. As the saying goes, "You Do You!"
😀
What's crazy to me is the fact that we as wood turners seem to get a little bit of criticism for creating something that nobody else could ever see to begin with. That to me is where the artists mind begins to go where the art needs to be. Happy turning my friend 😊
😊
I for one like the look of the elm bowl with it’s offset ; the added bead detail 👍 .
😊
I love 11pm on a Thursday in the UK, a Shady Acre video pings in😃. Another fantastic piece Phil love it 👍
Oh, that's time for bed around here, John! 😊
Thank You Phil, Thank You Dave Smith in Arizona....Nice hard wood with no cracks....Thanks for the diamond dresser techniques Phil. ... NO PHIL, YOU DO NOT DRIVE ME CRAZY. Your imperfectious (ha) turnings are exactly why you are so much fun to watch & I do not need another flawless ceramic cereal bowl thank you. UNTIL NEXT TIME...TM
"Imperfectious" I love that, term, Tuffy! I will be using that in the future. I've always had a hard time defining my style, I think you've nailed it! 😊
@@PhilAndersonShadyAcresWoodshop Well thank you Phil. So in a very small way I contributed to the enhansifacation (ha) of your show. ... TM
@@tuffymartinez Perfect!
This is beautiful. I agree that perfection can be boring. Well done!
😊
Looking good! Whenever I make something from Elm, I can't help but use the word chatoyance, because someone always asks why it's so shiny. I love using that word too, it's a cool word. Star wars fans can see the Death Star inside this bowl. I learned about Howard's from you, and I use it all the time, I just love that stuff.
Sometimes it's the perfect finish, William! 😊
I just learned a new word. Thanx William .
While you were making it, I thought, no. Not uneven. But it was the right decision, Phil. A really lovely piece
😊
It's been a few weeks since I added a comment. I have been busy and have watched every video. Don't change the way that you think a piece of wood should be. I made a bowl for our neighbor from part of a tree that was cut down in her yard. I left the live edge and bark inclusions and she loved it. I owe that to you. Thanks so much for your video's.
Wonderful story, Alan! I love that you could make your neighbor lady happy with a piece of her tree including the bark she may have touched while it was still standing! 😊
We know you are crazy Phil, you are "special" and it's what we love about you lol. A pretty bowl and the imperfections make it unique and very special. Thank you mate.
Hey, cool, I like being special! 😊
Love the winged bowl - even though it is off center. I really enjoy how you talk to your audience and make us part of your decision making. God bless.
Cool, thanks, Michele! 😊
It may be a little whacky but it turned out to be another of your signature pieces. Well done Phil a lovely piece.
😊
I'm with you Phil, I don't mind the un-even edges at all, doesn't bother me in the least! Like the comments below, we watch you turn firewood into un-even perfection!! Keep on being you Phil!
Thanks a lot, Gary! 😊
Absolutely perfect the finish is so silky looking and I always do love how you think outside the box and don make boring bowls! Also I am not a fan at all of beads but it is just so fitting on this it helps define the shape and I think it goes well with with the straight edges, I don’t think a curve would have been as fitting! Good as always Phil you’re the best!!!
Wow, thank you! 😊
Hey Phil! I believe the slightly off center bowl to the wing portion adds a nice dimension of the bowl. I didn’t thing so when you saw that the wings would not be even, but it adds a feature that adds to the appeal to the bowl. Nice, as usual!
I'm glad you can appreciate that, Scott, thank you! 😊
We are all crazy….. some more than others! Some are even a little off center too! It takes all kinds.
Love that elm, what beautiful wood!
😊
the color of that wood is outstanding, that grain is beautiful and super tight, no checks or large cracks. this one just came out perfect..
Glad you like it, Juan, thank you! 😊
Really nice work Phil. I'm always amazed by the finish you are able to achieve. I think the shape suits the piece. The other profile I like for winged bowls is a gentle downward curve. It seems to soften the otherwise sharp edges of a flat rectangle.
😊
Gorgeous piece. The irregularity gives it character and makes it unique. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Cheers! 😊
Ooh, you're the first woodturner that I've watched that called out using the space between chuck jaws to insert your calipers. That was a great tip!
Cool, glad it was helpful, Dana! 😊
Looks great as always. You’re right the “not perfect” edges and spacing makes it perfect. I love the square shape and I can’t wait to try one. Thanks for the lesson!
Thanks, Michael! 😃
How on earth do you look at that block of wood and see a beautiful a winged bowl inside? When we say you're an artist (despite your objections), this is what we mean.
Just practice, probably, Dick. No magic, here! 😊
It's beautiful grain and smooth as silk. No, the wacky as you call it doesn't bother me at all. I love it!😍👍👏
😊
Mother Nature doesn’t make anything perfectly even!! I love that you do what the wood tells you!! You do beautiful beautiful work!!!!!
Thank you, Catherine! 😊
Hi Phil!
I've been a wood carved for a number of years and just got into "turning". Been watching a lot of videos, and have really enjoyed yours. You are a great " teacher/instructor" and I really enjoy watching your skill at work and hearing your commentary! Thank you!
So nice, thank you, Cap! 😊
Not being perfect is why I think that bowl is beautiful Phil, wouldn’t change a thing. Keep turning.👍👍👍👍
Thank you, I will 😊
Of course you're crazy Phil.........!! The grain, the shape and the general appearance are gorgeous. It's a one off, unique, that's what important
Cool, thanks, Barry! 😊
Elm is gorgeous and this bowl with it's little attached plate is very cute.
😊
I think it’s exactly what it’s supposed to be, BEAUTIFUL!!!
😊
screwacky is great, I get more ideas watching you than any other turner I watch on TH-cam. keep it up.
😃
Wasn't sure I'd like the square corners, but I changed my mind. Wood grain is beautiful. Love the "Screwacky" nowl.
😊
I love winged bowls and I see only the beauty of the bowl, not the irregularities.
Excellent, thanks, Carol! 😊
Phil the way you turn shows the TRUTH of the wood you turn. That should be celebrated not apologised for. A beautiful piece.
Thanks, David! 😊
Nice winged elm bowl. Love the deep rich grain. Phil thanks for the diamond card lesson. Dan
😊
Imperfections is what makes natural wood look perfect 🥰 don't change a thing trying to make your woodwork look it was an assembly line piece
😊
Glad I found you Phil! I have been in machine shops for 45 years. Working with .001's and .0001's. I started bowl turning 3 years ago and told myself I would never push for perfection again. I love the freedom.
Exactly, James! 😊
Yes Phil you are crazy all wonderfully exceptional, creative, people are. Don't change !!!
😊
Hi Phil
What a lovely piece of work. I was one of those who thought everything had to be concentric until I started watching you. Your right that we need the finished work to be interesting and full of character. My wife still thinks that I have made a mistake even if there is a knot in my work 🤣🤣.
Keep on doing what your doing, we all love it.
Regards
Mike
She'll come around. LOL! Thanks, Mike! 😊
Unapologetically Wonkey with a Bodacious Bead. 💖
"Bodacious" A beautiful word! Gotta use it more often. 😊
Smooth as silk, beautiful color and grain, and the bead adds interest - I like it. I am not bothered at all by the bead not being perfectly centered from each edge. Wonky is far more interesting.
I totally agree! 😊
As the creator, it is your eyes and hands that see and feel the wood and know by that what it was meant to be. You lovingly work your magic using your knowledge, skill and heart to bring such beauty into existence. There is no need to apologize for or second guess yourself because of what an arm chair quarterback may think. We watch because we enjoy what you do and the choices you make! Thank you for sharing yourself and your beautiful creations!!
Thank you so much for your generous comment, Enaid! 😊
Phil even screw wacky looks gorgeous. Thank you for the few tips I walked away with tonight. This is always a great finish for my TNT Thursday night turn. I hope to see you next Thursday night. Have a great week.
I'll be looking for you, Albert! 😊
I think working with the shape of the wood instead of making it conform is beautiful, it makes every piece unique just like the trees they came from.
😊
Love that it's a biit off center. Boy, is this nice wood! Thanks, as always for sharing!
😊
I love it I think it’s wonderful, but my whole family is kind of Ardy. My mother is a master painter. My father is a master Leathersmith and I am a master blacksmith. Learning Woodturning. Uniqueness is what makes the world interesting.
So true! Unique is where it's at! 😊
"Why do you..." because art. That's all. That's why we love you! Keep doing you, buddy. I love your art.
Thank you Jeff! 😊
Hi Phil, you've said."Im not so much into perfection.." Thats exactly what makes your work so sympathic. The winged bowl looks great, the grain turned out very nicely. Well done. I've never turned a winged bowl but i will definitely try. Thanks Phil !
I hope you do, Stefan. They are a little challenging but fun and satisfying at the same time! 😊
You have it right so you don't need to apologize. As always great job
😊
I absolutely love your unique projects! One of the reason I watch you is that you let each piece of wood guide the shape/design of the bowl. I also enjoy how you leave the "nature" in your designs. I agree with you..."perfect" bowls are boring to me. One of the other things I like about you is that you enjoy the "feel" of the wood in the same way that I do.
I love your channel!!!
Awesome! Thank you, Kayla! 😊
Don't sweat it. I like you and your work just as they are!
😊
Hi,Phil.Boy,the bees wax was the way to set the gentle waves of this beautiful piece.
Thanks for sharing!
And it's sooo silky smooth, Ron! 😊
I like it a lot. Uneven as it is makes it unique. Thank you, Phil.
😊
I love the natural features you leave in your turnings.
I'm very glad about that, Deborah, thank you! 😊
Abstract Art Phil just look at it and enjoy the lines and the erregular edges. Beutyful Phil again . Stay healthy old man . 👴
😊
Thank you for taking the time to show us the details like how to sharpen the dovetail tool. I am now going to buy one as that’s what was holding me back before. I made a my first winged bowl earlier this week and wondered what I else I could have done as I wasn’t thrilled with the final shape. The bead really looks fantastic. I like that it shows the round bowl coming up through the flat top. I love for the wood to show its warts and bumps too. Thanks for making these videos!
Thank you very much, Karen! 😊
I thought at the start that it wouldn't look right, but I was wrong. The finished peice looks great - you were right in that the lopsidedness would add to the character and not take away from it.
I'm glad you like it, thank you! 😊
Always a pleasure Phil just another beautiful peach
😊
Simple, nice, beautiful. Structure of the elm tree is amazing. Thank you ❤️
😃
Yes, those winged bowls drive me crazy! Lol
Or intimidate me.
Some day I'll try one.
Nicely done, Phil.
They are a fun challenge. Give it a try, Tim! 😊
Good evening, Phil.
I like your bowl. I like the wings. I like the wings even if they are different. I like the finish. I like the raised part on top. I like the shape. I like your video. Thanks for making a great end to my Thursday. All the best to you my friend.
Good to see you here each week, Ray, thank you for the support! 😊
I do like a winged bowl, always a nice challenge. As Barny Rubble would say, remember him…. You done it again Fred (phil)
Haha, sure, I remember, Barney! 😊
Love it Phil. Nature isn't always balanced.
😊
Beautiful 😊. I love how your gouge keeps shrinking. Lot of love in that gouge right there. You are so appreciated
Haha, yeah, it's getting harder and harder to sharpen it, Suze. I'm going to have to retire it soon but I love it! 😊
I like how the look of the grain changes with the angle of the light, certainly a benefit of the winged top.
😊
Another amazing bowl 🥣 I think the wings add to the character of the bowl and a place to pass it to someone else 😀 😉
Yup, easy to pick up and hold! 😊
Hi Phil, I just love the little snippets of info you drop into your videos, using a screw driver for the burr, brilliant, I had not thought of that.
Thank you, Stuart! It does work very well. 😃
Hi Phil, another beautiful work of art made by you and Mother Nature!!!!! Yesterday I hopped on the lawn tractor to mow and click, click, click, dead battery. The six sided 7/16th nuts and bolts refused to work with my 12-point box wrenches, so it was vise-grips to get the wires disconnected from the battery and off to Advance Auto for a new battery, 6-point wrenches and new battery post bolts. Oh, and the two clips on my battery charger eroded to being useless. Well $78 and change later and sandpaper to clean the corrosion off of the wire ends, my yard is now freshly mowed and looks great. After watching your video and calming down I decided to wait a few days before I change the oil and sharpen the blades on the mower. There are many things that you just can't rush besides wood turning!!!!!
Always interesting adventures from you, Freddie, thanks for watching! 😊
I like that you “leave the nature” and the saw marks. 🙂
And yes, it is a beautiful grain, and a very nice bowl!
Thank you, Jim! 😃
The bowl looks great and the shape kind of shows off the grain. I really like it.
Thank you very much, Linda! 😊
We Brits love eccentricity, the grain is fantastic and eccentric! Great to watch and inspiring
Good to know, thank you! 😊
Second time watching this video. The grain stunning. The unusualness of the bowl is very appealing. It’s a winner.
Cool, thank you! 😊
I like it. The contrast between the grain in the bowl and grain in the wing is nice.
😊
Phil, I just shuffled the deck and you came up as the ace of Diamond...cards!
LOL!
Phil, the imperfections make it perfect. Another beautiful piece of art.
Thank you, Ken! 😄
Thank you so much for showing us how to sharpen your tools. You're so awesome.
You are so welcome! Thank you! 😊
I like 'crazy' because it's unique and one-of-a-kind. Love watching the wood come to life in your expert hands.
😊
Very nice job Phil, I leave the gaps just the way god gave them to me and have no complaints.
😊
